Just a thought from a lactnet lurker,

If a baby contracted the HIV virus from a mother with it through pregnancy, and I know
that they have ways to prevent this now, but if the baby did...with all of the miracles
of breast milk would giving this baby breast milk from a milk bank and not from the
mother (of course not!!) possibly have an effect on the HIV??  Please email me if this
makes no sense whatsoever.
